Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 1hOpus 5.5 has been great. I guess I'll have to try this out to compare 110
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 1hI covered at .08. they made the interest payment this morning so bankruptcy will take a little while and there's no point sticking around for that $GETY 030
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 28/09/2026Halted and will be delisted tonight and trade OTC tomorrow becuase of the NYSE $0.10 rule (stocks that trade under that price for over an hour or two get halted and delisted). Bankruptcy announcement should come within a couple days 120
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 28/09/2026"Getty Images ($GETY) is discussing fresh financing with lenders as it seeks to shore up liquidity, with a debtor-in-possession loan among the options under consideration, Bloomberg reported Monday, citing people familiar with the matter." I love the initial wrong-way move on this news. // I'm short 121
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 26/09/2026Lol I love my real-time dashboard for quarterly-updated info 180
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 25/09/2026They were genetically modified to lack eyes. The blindfolds just cover up their empty sockets 010
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 25/09/2026For the record I used node.js when I had a contract programmer write me an alert program to read and parse SEC filings and that eventually became the bot -- so it always made sense to just keep going with the existing architecture. 020
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 25/09/2026A sofware engineer / algorithmic trader I talked to yesterday thought it was crazy but the LLMs (Opus 5.5 & Fable 5) say no: switching languages might save me a few microseconds but my latency to trade is dominated by short locates around ~200ms (plus 60ms transit time to exchange from home) 100
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 25/09/2026I had LLMs build me a trading bot starting earlier this year. It trades news, SEC filings, and based on technical price action. Is it really dumb that it is built in node.js? 310
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 25/09/2026It took 5 years but now I'm on the Cayuse Vineyards mailing list. I have truly made it in this world. Now to pray that they let me buy some Bionic Frog 020

Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 24/09/2026Thanks to Opus 5.5 for giving me more stats with little effort but this really bothers me now -- the drawdown spike should be a % of the graph area (so 50% drawdown hits the middle of chart area). Fixed that and lol 030
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 24/09/2026Is a 62% return with a 0.6% max drawdown good? Too bad this stuff isn't scaleable otherwise I could lever up 10x and get really rich with little risk. 3121
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 23/09/2026I think it likes writing prose more than it likes writing tests 010
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 20/09/2026My precious 💕 RAM. LLMs have driven up the price but they also allowed me to build my own backtester which is the only reason I need it. 140
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 11/09/2026Very good thread on the Jason Arday affair from a guy who knows scientific fraud 011
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 11/09/2026Oh yeah I'm sure it actually looks like crap and it is just printed. 030

Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 04/09/2026 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthrop... While the anthropic principle says you wouldn't exist to ask the question elsewise, a more generalizable effect is if an improbable thing had not happened, you would not bother to ask the question; thus improbability itself is not evidence. 010
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 02/09/2026I don't know if this is a bad sign or a good sign: 100 coin bags of Trump $1 coins sold out (but not 25-coin rolls) www.usmint.gov/semiquincent... 020

Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 24/08/2026Found the menu! Weirdly enough they stuck it in the goody bag with some herbal caramels, a cookie, their custom granola, a Smyth corkscrew, and some custom coasters 020
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 24/08/2026One nice touch is that all the paired wines were also 10 years old. I will way that this is the most dressed up I've ever been to go to a 10 year old's birthday party 161
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 24/08/2026So much good food. This is the second half of the meal 240
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 24/08/2026Had a great dinner at Smyth in Chicago on Saturay: 10th anniversary dinner. This is also the first year they are the sole 3 Michelin star restaurant in the city. See alt text for attempted descriptions (they didn't give a menu at the end). Way too much food and too rich but wonderful time. 150

Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 07/08/2026Happy $QVCPQ bankruptcy plan effectiveness day to all who celebrate! The only time a smart short wants his stock to go to zero is when he is certain that DTC will delete it // Disclosure: no longer short $QVCPQ or at least I won't be after the new DTC instruction tomorrow morning 160
Michael Goode @goodetrades.com · 06/08/2026Behind every action is a person: This morning DTC issued a notice to brokers that it was deleting $QVCPQ then it shortly thereafter rescinded the notice. Someone at QVC told them to go ahead because they were listing today but forgot to check that the bankruptcy effective date had occurred. 010
